Hello,

I can say that it is definitively not good.
My conclusion is that /lib /lib64 should be on the same partition as /
IF not the installation fails. It would be good to document it
if not already done.
Hence, an upgrade from Fedora 16 to Fedora 18 with
/lib on a different partiton as / will probably fails too.
Could you document it if not done with the instructions to such an upgrade.

Thank.
